Peach Blossom at the Bottom of the Fan

Chapter 60

"Does it look good?" Looking up, seeing Sun Tiancang turning his head hastily, Gu Sixiao couldn't help laughing.

"This hairpin is really beautiful, thank you very much."

Her thanks only made Sun Tiancang's face redder, and he turned his head away, muttering for a long time but didn't say a word, he hurriedly grabbed the basin beside him, "I'll go grab some more noodles, it seems that it's too late !"

Gu Sixiao smiled, but didn't make a sound.

With the spoon in his hand, he finely adjusted the filling in the bowl.

Although it wasn't the first time that Gu Sixiao had bribed the doorman to sneak out, but it was the first time Gu Sixiao came to the courtyard where Sun Tiancang lived.Saying that we have a meal of glutinous rice balls together, we can count as celebrating the new year together.But Gu Sixiao's heart is full of emotions at the moment.

The housewife of a rich family may not touch the spring water with her ten fingers on weekdays, but during the Chinese New Year in previous years, the sister-in-law took her with her, and the two sister-in-laws made glutinous rice balls by themselves.

Even the eldest brother would clean his hands and rub two on the side. Although it is not so round, it is also suitable for the scene.She still remembered that at this time last year, the family was kneading glutinous rice balls in the flower hall, and Brother Jing was mischievous, spilling glutinous rice noodles all over the body...

"Painting?"

Hearing the cry, Gu Sixiao raised her head, the smile on the corner of her mouth was slightly suppressed, her eyes were in a trance for a moment, but soon, she laughed.

"I've prepared all the stuffing, um, there are five kernels with sesame seeds, and those with rose silk. What do you like?"

"I like them all!" Sun Tiancang smiled and wanted to talk, but frowned when he heard the sound of the courtyard door opening and closing outside.

"I'll go and have a look." Sun Tiancang put down the basin and turned to go out, "Maybe the second senior brother is back, he is a hospitable person, maybe he will bring back some brother to eat..."

Gu Sixiao smiled and didn't respond, but at the next moment, she turned her head and looked out the window.

Through the window paper, she couldn't see the outside clearly, she could only vaguely see the figure, but she couldn't hear the familiar voice wrongly.

It's Chu Mengsheng!

Listening attentively, she only heard Sun Tiancang say with a slightly mocking smile: "Didn't you say that Dr. Chu went back to his hometown to visit relatives? Why did he come back so soon?"

Laughing awkwardly, Chu Mengsheng said in a low voice, "I just came back, just returned..."

"Okay, Tiancang, what are you talking about so much?" Zhang Wu rolled his eyelids and pushed Sun Tiancang away, "Doctor Chu, please take a good look at Miss Luluo. She is a woman who has suffered such a big crime. The body must be weak. Our brothers are all big men, don’t understand this, you are a doctor, see how to supplement her, so I can buy some supplements for her.”

"Yes," Chu Mengsheng replied with a smile, and helped the medicine box on his shoulders, but his smile was a bit bitter.

He was also unlucky, he was blocked by Zhang Wu when he went home, although he didn't want to see the woman who had a miscarriage, but he couldn't refuse, so he had to be dragged here.

Zhang Wu on the other end didn't see Chu Mengsheng's reluctance, "It's hard to invite Dr. Chu—oh, by the way, Tiancang, didn't you say that your sister is coming today? Hurry up, and let her follow in." , although she is a little girl, she is still a woman after all, taking care of patients is better than us old men!"

"Second senior brother, my Hua'er is not a girl who everyone waits on..." Sun Tiancang lowered his face, and turned around and left regardless of what Zhang Wu thought.

After only two steps, I saw Gu Sixiao coming out of the kitchen.

"Second senior brother is back! Ah, and Doctor Chu—come just in time, let's have glutinous rice balls together later! Tomorrow will be fifteen, so let's celebrate the Lantern Festival earlier."

Hearing the voice, Chu Mengsheng raised his head, his eyes fell on the smiling girl, and he couldn't help being stunned.

As if not aware of his gaze, the girl raised her head, her bright smile was extremely bright, and for a moment, that smile made Chu Mengsheng feel a little dazed.

It seems that not long ago, someone had smiled at him like this, the jade hairpin on his head reflected the sunlight, crystal clear like a green leaf under the sun.

Turning his face away in embarrassment, Chu Mengsheng swallowed his saliva and tried not to look at the girl who was getting more and more beautiful.

Staring at him, Sun Tiancang snorted.

As soon as he snorted, Zhang Wu stabbed him and pushed him aside. He greeted him with a smile, "Doctor Chu, I also invite you to visit Miss Luluo. Ah, little sister, you go too..."

Seeing the girl smiling and nodding, and following Chu Mengsheng into the house, Zhang Wu patted Sun Tiancang's chest, "You, a big man, is not as refreshing as my little sister! Go, go, don't get in the way .”

Sun Tiancang raised his eyebrows, passed Zhang Wu and followed into the house without saying a word.

"Ah, look at you like that, I'm afraid that Doctor Chu will eat my little sister!" It was originally just a joke, but as soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Wu also rushed into the house.

Really, not to mention the younger sister, that Luluo girl is delicate and tender, so pitiful, if Dr. Chu really has a wrong heart, he will suffer a lot.

After thinking about it, he touched his head and laughed silently.

Really, he is also 24 or [-] years old, but he hasn't even married a daughter-in-law. It's rare that there is a beautiful girl who speaks softly to him, a warrior.

Although Luluo is not the eldest daughter of Huanghua, and she just gave birth to a child, if she is willing, he will not dislike her.I just don't know what Lu Luo thinks, does she think he is a pauper with no great skills?
Feeling hot in his chest, Zhang Wu stopped at the door, didn't go any further, just looked inside with one kick in and one out.

As soon as Gu Sixiao looked up, he saw Sun Tiancang standing at the door with arms crossed, and Zhang Wu leaning on the door frame.

"Second senior brother, do you want to come in or go out? Ah, I think you should all go out! Standing there blocking the light also makes Luluo uncomfortable."

As soon as she said it, the two men were embarrassed to stare at Chu Mengsheng again, and they retreated obediently even though they were reluctant.

Luluo, who was leaning on the bed and surrounded by the quilt, peeked at Gu Sixiao thoughtfully, "It seems that Huaer is not the same as when you were in the mansion."

Glancing at Luluo, Gu Sixiao smiled, "Aren't you different?"

"Yeah, it's different..." Luluo murmured in a low voice, and after a moment of silence, she suddenly smiled wryly: "Now, I know that I used to think too well of everything - ridiculously stupid..."

Without answering her, Gu Sixiao just looked at Chu Mengsheng.

"Miss Luluo, you are weak now, so don't overwork your mind..." Chu Mengsheng consciously avoided Gu Sixiao's gaze while speaking in a low voice, "I will prescribe a secondary prescription, and let Detective Zhang go to my shop to take pictures quickly." Just grab the medicine."

Standing up, Chu Mengsheng wanted to leave, but Gu Sixiao also stood up to keep someone else, "Eat a bowl of glutinous rice balls before leaving! Soon..."

Chu Mengsheng still wanted to refuse, but she had already lifted the curtain and left.

Seeing his dazed appearance, Luluo was a little puzzled, "Doctor Chu know Huaer?"

"Ah..." Turning around, Chu Mengsheng came to his senses and couldn't help muttering, "Hua'er..."

"I, I helped her see a doctor before."

"Really? I don't know about it. I don't know about many things about painting." Lu Luo whispered, thinking of that day, she couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.

It's really strange, when the gambling house came to collect the debt that day, she saw Hua'er, and in front of the Hongxiao Pavilion.

Is it a coincidence, or is there another reason?Why is Hua'er, a little girl, always getting involved with their affairs?
Feeling gloomy, Lu Luo wanted to ask something more, but Zhang Wu had already lifted the curtain and came in. She could only swallow her suspicions and talk to Zhang Wu with a smile.

After a while, Gu Sixiao really came over with a tray, "Come here, one bowl of glutinous rice balls per person, although it is a snack, it also means reunion."

Chu Mengsheng refused, so he had to hold a bowl too.

The glutinous rice balls are the size of quail eggs. The skin is thin and waxy. Once you bite into it, the filling will flow out. The sweetness is slightly astringent.

Chu Mengsheng was stunned after only eating half a glutinous rice ball.

The glutinous rice balls are made of rose silk, but the filling is more tangerine peel and a little sour, but it is filled with ebony plums.

This taste is very familiar, and the glutinous rice balls he ate in the past have always tasted this way.

This is Gu's glutinous rice balls, his favorite flavor in his paintings.

Looking up at the smiling girl in front of him, he couldn't help calling out, "Hua'er?!"

"Doctor Chu?" Looking back and smiling slightly, the girl's bright smile was as bright and clear as the bright moon reflected in the pool, it was too beautiful to behold.

In a trance, Chu Mengsheng's throat was a little choked, and after a while, he said: "This glutinous rice balls are delicious."

Who knew, what he called was not the painting in front of him, but another painting.

However, in this world, probably no one still remembers that painting.

I don't know where she is now, is she still okay?
Turning her face away, Gu Sixiao swallowed the glutinous rice balls in her mouth with a smile, savoring the astringency in the sweet and sour, but her heart was full of taste.

She did it on purpose. Although this bowl of glutinous rice balls was nothing, she knew that Chu Mengsheng would definitely taste something else.

After all, she was still resentful.

Others can forget that Gu Sixiao, but Chu Mengsheng, she wants him to remember that there was a woman named Gu Sixiao in the past, and he must always remember it.

After seeing off Chu Mengsheng, Sun Tiancang stared at Gu Sixiao, wanted to speak several times, but swallowed it all back.

Knowing what he wanted to ask, Gu Sixiao just pretended not to see it.After tidying up the bowls and chopsticks, I met his gaze calmly, "I'm going back first, I'm afraid I'll be out for too long and people will notice. Well, I'll put those glutinous rice balls on the plate, and when your senior brothers come back at night, cook them together Let's eat."

"Oh," Sun Tiancang replied sullenly, and followed behind Gu Sixiao, not knowing what he was thinking.

It was Zhang Wu who squeezed over and pulled Gu Sixiao to discuss, "Little sister, you are a woman, easy to talk, why don't you help me ask Miss Luluo to see what she means."

"what do you mean?"

"That's what it means!" Scratching his head anxiously, Zhang Wu coughed dryly, "Just ask her, and tell her that I'm thick and can't speak nicely, but I love my wife. Although I'm poor, I will give all the money I earn to my wife, although it won’t be rich or luxurious, but it will definitely feed her and keep her warm.”

"Oh," Gu Sixiao responded, and suddenly raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Why don't you speak louder? Not only in the room, but even the next yard can be heard."

Zhang Wu's face turned red, and he turned his head to look at the silent room, feeling anxious and irritable.

Seeing him like this, Sun Tiancang suppressed a smile, stretched out his hand and pushed him directly under the window.

"Second senior brother, say it again!"

"Stinky boy!" Opening Sun Tiancang, Zhang Wu swallowed his saliva and summoned up his courage, "Miss Luluo, did you hear that just now? If you don't dislike me, just be my wife! I will treat you well..."

There was no sound in the room for a long time, Zhang Wu shook his head, almost desperate, and only heard a soft "hmm".

"You, you agreed?!" Zhang Wu was taken aback for a moment before he realized it.

Da Le hugged Sun Tiancang with his backhand, and said with a smile: "Brother, I, I'm going to marry a lady, I'm going to marry a lady..."

Seeing his crazy appearance, Gu Sixiao couldn't help but also laughed.

Seeing the room where there was no more sound, she thought of Luluo, and felt very emotional for a moment.
